1.2.2 Baggage that can be processed by the system but requires special handling

For longer baggage, a modified program is required to push the bag in the center.

The following baggage can be processed, but must be in a tub before processing.

T 2 Baggage requiring special handling

1.2.3 Fragile baggage

The Viper pusher cannot process fragile items.

1.2.4 Odd-Size Baggage

The Viper pusher cannot process odd-size baggage.

1.3SYSTEM OPERATION

The pusher transfer baggage from one conveyor to another. These conveyors can be parallel or perpendicular See chapter 1 System overview. The pusher is provided clockwise or counterclockwise, according to the conveyor direction. To be able to automatically sort baggage, the pusher is connected to the BHS.

The pusher is mounted next to the feeding conveyor. This conveyor has a narrow width to ensure the sorting of different baggage sizes. The reach over the belt is 35.84" (910mm). The speed of the conveyor is related to the capacity of the pusher.

Pusher capacity

60 bpm

80 bpm

 

 

 

Conveyor speed

260 fpm (80 m/min)

345 fpm (105 m/min)

 

 

 

The pusher has a high capacity which means that it moves at great speeds. The force used for pushing is considerable which means that all personnel in the pusher operation area must use great caution. The pusher stops in the home position to avoid interference with passing baggage.

1.4THEORY OF OPERATION

The Viper pusher functions in two operation modes, the Run mode and the Jog mode. In the Run mode divert operations are controlled by a trigger signal from the host Baggage Handling System (BHS) in which the pusher is integrated or the cycle button located on the control panel. In the Jog mode, the arm's motion is controlled by operators located on the pusher's control panel.

G0045-072-00001-EN-A.11

10 of 87

O&M Manual

Viper Pusher O&M Manual

1.4.1 Run Mode

In the Run mode the host controller in the BHS sends a trigger signal to the pusher. A trigger signal is released by the BHS host controller after the decision is made to divert a bag. The pusher's arm cycles out to push the bag onto the takeaway conveyor, then returns to the home position to allow non-diverting bags to pass.

1.4.2 Jog Mode

In the Jog mode of operation the pusher does not respond to trigger signals received from the host controller. Instead, the pusher can be operated manually by the jog switch located on the pusher's control panel. The release of the jog selector switch will stop the motion of the arm.

This mode is intended for troubleshooting and testing during general operations, and after performing maintenance work.

1.5VFD CONTROL PANEL

The control panel for the pusher connects the pusher unit to the BHS. The front panel, (see Figure F 5), comprise of the following:

F 5 Viper Pusher VFD Control Panel

Disconnect: Switches on the main power for the pusher for normal operations.

Cycle Pushbutton: Completes 1 full cycle of the pusher when pressed.

Run/Jog Switch: Selects the mode of operation for the pusher. For normal operation of the pusher within the BHS the Run/Jog switch should be in the Run position. The Cycle pushbutton will only function in Run Mode. To allow manual control of the movement of the pusher's arm via the FWD Jog/ REV Jog switch, place the Run/Jog Switch in the Jog position.

Rev/Fwd Jog Switch: 3 position momentary selector switch used to control the movement of the pusher arm. This switch will only function when the Run/Jog Switch is in the Jog position. Place the switch in the Rev position to run the arm in a counterclockwise direction. Place the switch in the Fwd position to run the arm in a clockwise direction.

1.7 OPERATIONAL SAFETY

1.7.1Pre-operating Procedure

1.Be sure that the MCP Controller main power disconnect is OFF and locked out and the PUSHER disconnect switch is OFF before opening the protective cover or making adjustments.

2.Be careful handling electric equipment.

3.Be sure that all guards are in place before resuming operation.

4.Keep hands and loose clothing away from moving parts.

5.Be careful when touching a bearing. A faulty bearing may be hot enough to cause burns.

6.Keep all conveyor belts and beds clear of obstructions and debris.

7.Do not use any conveyor as a rest, work platform, or conveyance for tools, parts, or personnel.

8.Observe all company directives and policies, the caution and warning signs posted on conveyors and instructions in this and other manuals.

9.When cleaning dust with compressed air, use eye protection and avoid breathing the dust.

2.On the Pusher control panel:

Switch the Disconnect OFF.

Leave the Run/Jog switch in the Run position.

3.Manually move the pusher’s paddle arm in order to clear the jam.

4.Reposition any bag(s) onto an open area of the conveyor belt outside the path of the pusher’s operation.

5.On the Pusher control panel:

Switch the Disconnect ON.

Press the Cycle Button.

The arm should cycle back to the home position.

6.Restart the conveyor line and resume normal operation.

MOTOR

The pusher consists of two paddles that rotate. A short arm and a long arm create the movement. The use of these two arms results in a triangular movement, which uses less space next to the conveyor, and creates a velocity in the direction of the conveyor belt.

The paddles are mounted symmetrically at the long arm. The round paddle pusher does not have a timing belt drive in the long arm.

The long arm rotates at its center, which is mounted at the short arm. The short arm is mounted at the reducer axle. The reducer is driven by a v-belt drive, which is powered by a motor.

The home proximity switch is used to detect the home position.

F 9 Home Proximity Switch

The deceleration proximity switch is used to engage the brake to stop the arm's motion.
